In That Deserted Island

At the centre of the archipelago, perhaps in the most favoured spot of all, lies an island that has been deserted for many generations.

在群岛的中央，大概是位于所有场所中最有利的地点，有一座被废弃了好几代的岛屿。

When Icame on board, the merchants and seamen flocked about me to hear how Icame into that deserted island, in a region where cannibal giants and serpents were known by the oldest sailors to abound.

当我上了船，那些商人和水手都围着我听我谈我如何会到这个荒芜的岛来，那些地方老航海家都是知道着食人肉的大人和大蛇。
